Specificity
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Rat PCSK9. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Rat PCSK9 and analogues was observed.
Asssay Type
Quantitive Sandwich
Sample Types
Serum, Plasma, Other biological fluids
Detection Wavelength
450nm
Sample Volume
1-200uL
Precision
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): Three samples of known concentration were tested in forty separate assays to assess inter-assay precision.
CV (%) = SD/meanX100
Intra-Assay: CV<8%
Inter-Assay: CV<12%
Test Principle
This assay employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate PCSK9 in samples. An antibody specific for PCSK9 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyPCSK9 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for PCSK9 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of PCSK9 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
Assay Duration
1-4.5h
Preparation and Storage
Store at 2-8 degree C

NCBI Description

a soluble zymogen; involved in hepatic growth and differentiation [RGD, Feb 2006]

Uniprot Description

Crucial player in the regulation of plasma cholesterol homeostasis. Binds to low-density lipid receptor family members: low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), very low density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR), apolipoprotein E receptor (LRP1/APOER) and apolipoprotein receptor 2 (LRP8/APOER2), and promotes their degradation in intracellular acidic compartments. Acts via a non-proteolytic mechanism to enhance the degradation of the hepatic LDLR through a clathrin LDLRAP1/ARH-mediated pathway. May prevent the recycling of LDLR from endosomes to the cell surface or direct it to lysosomes for degradation. Can induce ubiquitination of LDLR leading to its subsequent degradation. Inhibits intracellular degradation of APOB via the autophagosome/lysosome pathway in a LDLR-independent manner. Involved in the disposal of non-acetylated intermediates of BACE1 in the early secretory pathway. Inhibits epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC)-mediated Na+ absorption by reducing ENaC surface expression primarily by increasing its proteasomal degradation. Regulates neuronal apoptosis via modulation of LRP8/APOER2 levels and related anti-apoptotic signaling pathways ().

Product Notes

The Rat PCSK9 pcsk9 (Catalog #AAA2801688) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2801688 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat PCSK9. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
